Remote-Equipped But In Human Hands
Title:  Remote-Equipped But In Human Hands
Description:  This short train with this classic old Santa Fe unit stopped briefly by Van Cleve Park after crossing 15th avenue to let the crewman seen on the ladder board. Then it was northward ho! It might have been a short hop going to Northtown judging by the short string of misc. freight cars and bare tables it was towing. While it is sporting "Remote Controll Equipped" on it today it had human hands in controll.
